My Maltese got groomed...

My Maltese got groomed on Friday, on Saturday we noticed him shaking his head took him to the vet they said that his ears were irritated and put him on Surolzn ear drops and he still is shaking his head needs to be on it for 5 days should it be helping by now?

Veterinarian's Assistant: I'll do all I can to help. Has the Maltese been licking or rubbing the irritation?

I would not be too concerned at this stage. Sometimes they can head shake in response to physically having the drops put in. If he still seems irritated after you stop the drops after a 5 day course, I would be keen to have your vet take another look.
